CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

Each of this presentation and the Preliminary Prospectus contains “forward -looking statements”, within the meaning of securities laws, which reflect the current expectations of management of the Company regarding the Company’s future growth, results of operations, performance, business prospects and opportunities. Wherever possible, words such as “may”, “would”, “could”, “should”, “will”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “plan”, “expect”, “intend”, “estimate”, “aim”, “endeavour”, “seek”, “predict”, “potential” and similar expressions have been used to identify these forward -looking statements. These statements reflect management’s current beliefs with respect to future events and are based on information currently available to management of the Company. Forward -looking statements involve significant risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors could cause the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward looking statements, including, without limitation, the following factors which are discussed in greater detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the Preliminary Prospectus: These risks factors should be considered carefully by prospective investors.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward -looking statements prove incorrect, actual results, performance or achievements may vary materially from those expressed or implied by the forward -looking statements contained in this presentation and the Preliminary Prospectus. These factors should be considered carefully and prospective investors should not place undue reliance on the forward looking statements. Although the forward -looking statements contained in this presentation and the Preliminary Prospectus are based upon what management currently believes to be reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot assure prospective investors that actual results, performance or achievements will be consistent with these forward -looking statements, and management’s assumptions may prove to be incorrect. These forward -looking statements are made as of the date of the Preliminary Prospectus and, other than as required by law, the Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update or revise these forward -looking statements. Prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward -looking statements and should not rely upon the information contained in this presentation and in the Preliminary Prospectus as of any other date than the date of the Preliminary Prospectus.
